Hello,
    This list seems to be a little more varied in types of hardware then =
I thought it would be when I joined the list, however, I noticed that =
some people have posted crays up for sale on eBay, no real steals =
though.

They are both J90s though, and at those prices, a dual Athlon system =
will exceed them in gigflops per dollar, and total gigaflops.  (Two =
1.4ghz Athlons would get you about 4 gigaflops).
